Cautions and Warnings
Environmental Specifications
Ambient operating temperature: 0°C to 40°C
Rack Mount Instructions - The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions:
Instructions de montage en rack - Les instructions de montage en rack suivantes ou similaires sont incluses avec les instructions d'installation:
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Température ambiante élevée -S'il est installé dans un rack fermé ou à unités multiples, la température ambiante de fonctionnement de
l'environnement du rack peut être supérieure à la température ambiante de la pièce. Par conséquent, il est important d’installer le matériel dans un
environnement respectant la température ambiante maximale (Tma) stipulée par le fabricant.
Reduced Air Flow -Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is
not compromised.
Ventilation réduite -Installation de l'équipement dans un rack doit être telle que la quantité de flux d'air nécessaire au bon fonctionnement de
l'équipement n'est pas compromise.
Mechanical Loading -Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
Chargement Mécanique -Montage de l'équipement dans le rack doit être telle qu'une situation dangereuse n'est pas lié à un chargement mécanique
inégal.
Circuit Overloading -Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.
Surtension -Il convient de prendre l’ensemble des précautions nécessaires lors du branchement de l’équipement au circuit d’alimentation et être
particulièrement attentif aux effets de la suralimentation sur le dispositif assurant une protection contre les courts-circuits et le câblage. Ainsi, il est
recommandé de tenir compte du numéro d’identification de l’équipement.
Reliable Earthing -Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
Fiabilité de la mise à la terre -Fiabilité de la mise à la terre de l'équipement monté en rack doit être maintenue. Une attention particulière devrait
être accordée aux connexions d'alimentation autres que les connexions directes au circuit de dérivation (par exemple de l'utilisation de bandes de
puissance).
Refer to specific Product Model Data Sheet for Environmental Specifications (Operating Temperature, Storage Temperature, Humidity, and Altitude)
